What did you do to/with your second gen today?

Thanks DD94 & 98hemi-ram and for all the likes everyone

Just placed a summit order for some shiny new parts for the upcoming body job!

New steel roll pan (will be welded in)
Street scene mirrors
Tailgate handle shaving kit

I'll be sure to post up some pics when everything gets here.

As for my tranny problems i still havent even looked at thw truck yet. Been way to busy the past couple weeks and the truck is officially off the road until next spring so ive kinda lost all motivation for fixing it right away lol.

New front wheel bearings, track bar, leaf spring u joints, some touch up on my exhaust and finally took off that stupid step bar the PO put on the passenger side. Drives like a new truck now, my old track bar was totally f'd

After I get this ar15 built, I'm ordering my 3" body lift finally. Still haven't been able to make it to the shop to see what that noise coming from my transfer case area is.

Well today I got a definite answer as to what is wrong with my ac. And I also painted the grill.

On my way home with hot food I blared my exhaust into some Chevy guy's ear. lol I don't think he liked that too much.

 

[dodge dude94]

Went out and bought THIS:




10x12 inches of pure cooling.

 

[Merc225hp]

I needed to take my mind off things so I pulled the intake and VC's off the 454 to find this. Jug 6 is suspect, might pull the head in the am. Very good chance the motor is toast.

^^^Glad to see you getting greasy Mark.... Doesn't look like a good outcome though

Drove all over gods creation to pick up a new work tractor. Full plow setup with weights and chains and even a 2500lb harbor freight electric winch on the front! It's got a brandy new motor so reselling it I should triple my investment at least, I practically stole the thing

Anyone know if this will fit the 5.9 magnum? I wanna order but want to double check that it will fit

 

[Merc225hp]

Looks like they fit a 360LA not the 360 Maggy, so they might fit but they will leak as the bolts pattern is different.

 

[98blueram]

Damn lol.

 

[Merc225hp]

Look for a set of used Mopar cast VC's I have seen them go cheap on fleabay. Or make your own if you have the tools.

Damn. That's nasty. Any idea as to what happened there?

Not as of yet, I need to pull the HB and T chain cover see whats going on in there. The valve that is related to this still moves and so does the piston. This truck needs work way more than the other one, motor mounts, tranny mounts, turbo 400 is leaking everywhere. It might have a better body but the powertrain is in very rough shape to put it mildly.

Well.....at least you have your work cut out for you.

Filled her up, 11.4MPG. Also looks like gas is going down, paid $2.99/G.
